    Notes 
    • Domangart mac Domnaill of the Cenél nGabráin, the son of Domnall (Donald Brec).[1] He was a king of Dál Riada (modern western Scotland from about 659 to 673. Weis states that Domangart did not reign. [2] He may just ruled over a part of Dál Riata as king of the Cenél nGabráin.[1]

      Domangart succeeded to the kingship in 660, when the joint kingship of his uncle Conall Crandomna and Dunchad son of Duban ended with Conall's death. Nothing about Domangart's reign is mentioned by the sources until he was killed in 673, and succeeded by his cousin Maelduin. [Ref: Michael Davidson SGM 10/23/1995-115700]

      The Annals of Ulster for 673 report: "The killing of Domangart, son of Domnall Brecc, the king of Dál Riata." Some king-lists state that in his time the Cenél Comgaill separated from the Cenél nGabráin.

      Máel Dúin, Domangart's cousin, is often cited as succeeding Domangart. He may have been succeeded by Domnall Donn, Máel Dúin's brother, or Ferchar Fota, a more distant cousin of Cenél Loairn kinship group.[1]

      Domangart was the father of Eochaid (Eugene), who later ruled Dál Riada.

      Father: Donald IV, King of Dalriada, d. 642 in Strathcarron, Scotland, He became King of Dalriada, ca. 629 in Dungad, Scotland, lost Irish Dalriada 637
